I'm not the greatest recipe creator and I'm definitely impatient, so when I went looking for mermaid smoothie recipes (due to all those beautiful fantasy food photos I come across), I realized two things: 1) too much work, and 2) I can't find half of those ingredients.

So I took a little from this and that and made my own version using ingredients I could find and that were inexpensive.

Here is the Mermaid Smoothie Bowl result:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup coconut milk

1/3 cup rolled oats

2 tablespoons wild lavender honey (or agave/your fave sweetener)

1 large banana

a few drops blue food coloring (you can use Spirulina for a more natural coloring, but I couldn't find it and usually it's a bit expensive)

pineapple slices and edible hearts for topping (you can use anything from nuts to fruit to edible flowers)

Directions:

Put all ingredients (except for toppings) in a blender and blend until smooth.
